Yes, it probably would be a good time. What kind of HP are you thinking of? I guess 100?..

Yeah 100 would be nice. Although in some ways that seems like a step down from the semi final with 120...

You shouldn't have had these 120 in the first place.

Well, regardless of whether or not it was appropriate to, I think it worked out quite well in the end, and I'm glad we did.

So am I... I would have died three or four rounds earlier and not won if we'd had 100HP...

When we first started playing, didn't we have around twenty HP?

That was Gladiator1, which was much simpler.

We had 10 HP in the first game, and HP were tied to the Action Points, so as you became wounded, you became less effective.

That was the baby that grew into this monster

I had a gruelling 5 hour job interview today, with an extra 6 travelling, so no orders from me, and I may fall asleep later. If not I'll send orders this evening.

Thanks, Theben

But I'll let the Doctor off - that sounds like a good excuse .

	Semi-final 2b, round 3 Increase Your PM Length

Theben steps back from the Doctor, taunting him "You're doomed! There's no chance for you now!".

The Doctor refuses to be drawn into a verbal duel, and leaps forward quickly to strike. Theben's defence is strong, but not sufficient against the skill of the Doctor, whose rapier strikes home in Theben's shoulder, and whips out again quickly. The withdrawl is not quick enough, however, to stop Theben's strike deep into the Doctor's side, his sword scraping on the Doctor's ribs.

The Doctor staggers back, blood streaming from the deep wound in his torso, but still manages to find the skill to send a skillful strike low at Theben. Theben is putting even more effort into defense, and lowers his shield which just manages to catch the rapier, stopping it from hitting him. The Doctor's eyes narrow, and then his whole body relaxes in resignation as he realises that Theben is indeed right, and he has no chance of victory. The lethally powerful stroke from Theben which inevitably follows neatly removes the Doctor's head from his shoulders, sending it tumbling into the crowd while the Doctor's body slumps to the ground, arterial blood spurting from his neck.

Theben stands back, and raises his blade in a victory salute to the crowd, who respond with cheers as they see the more resounding deteat of the two semi-finals. Unlike Chaunk, Theben is able to walk from the arena on his own two feet.

Theben took 34 damage, leaving 37HP, while the Doctor is dead.
Theben is our second finalist.

So, no exciting turn in this battle. The Doctor does not get a third year running as a finalist.

So, I just need some input from Theben regarding HP for the final and we can begin .

I'm quite impressed that I'm not even playing and I still generally make it into the story. Although not recently.
